The Prefecture
of Rethymno lies between the White Mountains
and Mt Psiloritis or Ida.The Prefecture
has an area of 1,496 square kilometres
and a population of approximately 63,000.
The Prefecture has excellent beaches
and famous resort centres, such as Petres,
Stavromenos and Bali. Along the southern
coast, at Plakias, Ayia Galini and elsewhere,
are some of the best beaches in western
Crete and comfortable resort centres
are now coming into existence as new
and modern tourist units spring up almost
daily. Despite this, the Prefecture
is in many ways one of the most traditional
parts of the island and increasing tourism
has not encroached upon the agricultural
and stockbreeding occupations of the
inhabitants. Communications between
the Prefecture and the rest of Greece
consist of a daily ferry sailing to
Pireus.There are also buses to Suda,
where large car ferries serve the Chania-Pireus
line. From Chania airport at Akrotiri,
Olympic Airways buses connect to Rethymno.
In the summer, there are launch departures
for Santorini. Inside the Prefecture,
KTEL buses link the town with the villages
and beaches. In the summer, there is
a caique service from Agia Galini to
Matala in the Prefecture of Heraklio.
